Not at all, do you really think you need a diesel to tow 7500 to 8000lbs 15 to 20 times a year? If I exceed 10,000 I will certainly be looking at one, but for someone who does not daily drive their truck and isn't towing more than 10,000lbs regularly it is not needed.

If I never towed any trailers at all I'd still want the diesel version of my truck. No material difference in the total cost of ownership but all around superior performance. You are free to conclude otherwise but to me the diesel is obviously the better choice.
